TOD'S : FALL/WINTER 2007-2008 AD CAMPAIGN



As some of you know I spent 7 years in NYC as the National Sales Manager for Tod's accessories brand, that being said many people have asked me if the model featured in the new FALL 07/08 campaign is Sienna Miller, knowing that Diego Della Valle, president of Tod's had never chosen a celebrity to be the face of a campaign I said no, but given that the face looked so much like Sienna's I decided to put in a call to the Tod's press office and to my surprise they confirmed that yes it is Sienna, the first Tod's celebrity campaign model. She really looks stunning! Seems that Tod's creative director Derek Lam is giving the house a fresh approach.

Thanks,
Jordan Cappella
